Integrating customer feedback from existing Tobii EyeX gamers, we made five key advancements for the Tobii Eye Tracker 4C.

Adding head tracking functionality, making it the only gaming device to provide simultaneous head and eye tracking capabilities, which provides a superior experience in simulator game titles like Elite: Dangerous.

Adding Tobii EyeChip, the world's first ASIC, to reduce CPU load and power consumption from the host computer.

* Head tracking is not powered by the EyeChip so it may increase your CPU load.** The average power consumption during usage is 2.0W, but the eye trackers power consumption can spike up to 5-6W depending on the use case. For example, when the illuminators first turn on, the consumption can briefly spike (matter of milliseconds) at around 5-6W. The Tobii Eye Tracker 4C officially works with USB 2.0 BC1.2 which can handle spikes up to 7.5W.
